Manchester United look increasingly like they will offload Jadon Sancho in January amid his issue with Erik ten Hag but a potential transfer target has made his future plan clear
Manchester United's hopes of landing a Premier League proven replacement for Jadon Sancho have been dealt a huge blow with the news that Brighton star Kaoru Mitoma has penned a new long-term deal.
However they've tied down Mitoma for the long haul leaving United to look elsewhere if they want to add firepower and creativity in January. That could well be the case with Sancho's time at Old Trafford seemingly coming to an end amid his ongoing stand-off with Erik ten Hag. United though may seek to bring in a replacement with several of Ten Hag's options by no means firing on all cylinders. The likes of Anthony Martial and Antony have struggled in front of goal and the Red Devils need to add more quality to their attack.
The 26-year-old scored ten times last term as Brighton secured European football for the first time ever and already he's notched three times this season. Roberto De Zerbi has said on Mitoma's decision to stay put: “It’s great news. Kaoru is our top player.”
